Désirée works at the intersection of brand, business, and experience. For over 15 years (CV→), she’s been a companion to leaders and organizations standing at thresholds — when the path forward is unclear and the usual playbooks no longer help.

She leads a strategy consultancy built for this kind of work. Her bespoke approach, think brand play (Website→), guides through moments of question and possibility. It combines strategic framing to see patterns early, brand ecology to build meaningful connections, and dialogue design to surface clarity in chaos.

Her work has shaped brands like Siemens, BYK Chemie, IKEA, Philip Morris and others moving with curiosity in today’s landscape (Portfolio→). Her strength lies in the in-between spaces where strategy meets culture, where legacy rubs up against innovation, where businesses confront the question of what’s next. Her thinking has appeared in publications like Trend Report and Chamber of Commerce editorials (Publications→).

Between client collaborations, she explores technology’s impact on how we connect with each other, and studies strategy as a practice for sense-making and critical discernment, publishing field notes in her newsletter (Substack→).
